The Numbers Don't Lie
Virgo Power

NOTES: Royal Road progression is in the chorus (F G Em Am)

Of all the people that I met
when I was growing up
very few liked my vibe, I guess
I felt like giving up

I was the girl who talked too loud
didn't care what clothes you wore
I made up a fantasy world
it was better than the one I lived in

Numbers don't lie
I'm an acquired taste
Numbers don't lie
I'm not for everyone

chorus:
*Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
They don't lie! oh-oh-oh-oh
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
They don't lie!*

Of all the people that we met
when our band did play out
very few liked our sound, I guess
we felt like giving up

we made songs that were too strange
and we weren't too cool to care
one of these things is not like the others
and we were that square peg

Numbers don't lie
we're an acquired taste
Numbers don't lie
we're not for everyone

Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
They don't lie!
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
They don't lie!
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
Numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers, numbers
They don't lie!

I like the drum sounds and the way they are sort of circling around, neat. I like the verse a lot more than the chorus bit. I like the purposefully atonal type vibes in there. I'd probably have this higher than the judges, I don't think it works entirely but I kind of love some aspects of it.

Twinkly instrumentation. I like the verses… wish the "real" chorus was stronger… not sure I like the Peaches chorus feeling tacked on… though it passes the challenge… I guess. I'd have left that out. Vocals are stronger here than last couple entries though.
